Donavon Smallwood, Photographer, New York

Description

This black and white portrait features a young Black man standing outdoors in an open grassy field with distant trees visible in the background. He is wearing a short-sleeved graphic t-shirt with large printed designs on the front and light-coloured trousers with a drawstring waist. His hair is styled in short locs and he gazes downward with a neutral expression. The photograph is captured from a straight-on perspective with soft natural lighting and a shallow depth of field that gently blurs the natural landscape behind him. Shot by photographer Donavon Smallwood in New York.
